FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a method for moving files in bulk across the internet. It is more reliable and much faster than email. FTP involves using software you install on your PC (the client) to connect to an FTP server where you upload and store the files. The stored files can then be used by a website, or they can be downloaded by another FTP user.

Your web browser caches (stores) images and Flash and other page elements to make the page load faster. Many times, when a change is made to your website, the change may not appear when you refresh the page. This is because the web browser is showing you an old, cached version of the web page. To solve this problem, you need to clear your browser's cache and refresh the page. Follow the links below to clear your browser's cache.

I've been writing blog posts on and off since 2009, and it's been a fascinating experience. I've watched as I've seen how blogging is an acquired skill; one I've become better at over the past year or so. I've learned how to pick better blog post titles than when I first started, and I've learned how to chop complicated ideas into (I hope) fairly concise posts that summarize an issue or concept quickly and in a simple manner. And I've watched as the traffic on the websites I blog on have jumped with organic search traffic because of it.

Earlier this week, I gave a talk at a Business Growth Summit that I titled "Beyond SEO: What to do with Your Website Visitors." It was a really fun event and I had more people attend my session than I expected, which was great. I shared a lot of information during the presentation, and had a videographer record the entire talk, but that won't be ready for a few days. So in the meantime, I wanted to post here a checklist that I shared with the audience at the talk: a checklist to help you make sure your website doesn't suck.

I recently watched a video called "Steve Jobs: The Lost Interview," which has some never-before-seen footage of an interview with Steve Jobs from 1995.

It's interesting for a few reasons. For one, it was recorded after he had left Apple, when he was the CEO of NeXT Computer and Pixar. It's also interesting because of the predictions he makes way back in 1995 that were absolutely right on the money, particularly regarding the Internet.
